Bizarre 40s Woman Goes to Stamp the Seal on the Corpse of a Business Partner She Murdered and Buried

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] The bizarre act of killing a business partner and then stamping a contract with the victim’s thumbprint during the trial process has shocked the public.

A woman in her 40s (reported in the internet edition on April 20) who murdered a male co-investor in stocks in his 50s and buried the body in a field was found to have exhumed the corpse after the crime to forge a contract by dipping the thumb in ink and stamping it.

On the afternoon of the 10th, the first trial for the woman in her 40s, identified as A, who was charged with murder and concealment of a corpse, was held at the Busan District Court Criminal Division 5 (Presiding Judge Park Mu-young).

According to the prosecution, A and male doctor B met through an internet stock caf? as investment partners. A arbitrarily used about 100 million won of B’s investment funds, and B continuously demanded repayment.

Fearing that B’s repayment demands would ruin her family, A planned the crime.

Before the crime, A obtained permission from the owner of a cultivated land in Yangsan, saying she would plant trees. Then she called a backhoe operator to dig a pit, claiming it was for planting trees.

Three days later, in early April, A met B at a temple parking lot in Busan and told him, “I will give you about 1 to 1.5 million won monthly as dividends, so don’t come to my house.”

When B refused, A used a pre-prepared weapon to strangle B, who was sitting in the passenger seat, to death.

Afterwards, A drove the car to the pre-dug pit, buried B’s body, and covered it with soil.

The day after the crime, A decided to forge the stock investment contract. She exhumed B’s corpse from the buried land, dipped one thumb in ink, and stamped the corpse’s fingerprint on the stock contract.

Regarding the prosecution’s indictment, A’s lawyer responded, “She has confessed to everything.”

Earlier, the police and prosecution focused their investigation on finding accomplices in the murder and corpse concealment crimes, but no evidence identifying co-conspirators emerged, so only A was brought to trial.
